    ```javascript
    javascript:$('body').replaceWith('<body>'+$('.subscription-box').find('li').find('a.title').map((_, d) => $(d).text()).get().join("<br>")+'</body>');javascript.void()
    ```

    - The reddit page is replaced with a list of all the subreddits you're subscribed to.

    # For nerds
    Here is the expanded snippet:

    ```javascript
    // Build a list of subreddits with break lines between them
    var subs = $('.subscription-box')
    .find('li')
    .find('a.title')
    .map((_, d) => $(d).text())
    .get()
    .join("<br>"));

    // Replace the page with a list of subreddits
    $('body').replaceWith('<body>' + subs +'</body>');

    javascript.void()
    ```

    It finds all items from the subreddit list in the sidebar on the page, and builds an array of subreddit names from it.
    The array is concatinated with breaklines.
    The page is then replaced with this list.
